In a recent ICS Safety Short video captured on our turnkey PFAS water treatment system construction project in Orange, CA, our site Superintendent Nicholas shared valuable guidance on identifying potential jobsite hazards. Here were the key takeaways:
- Take #Initiative: Take proactive measures to address and resolve hazards promptly.
- Maintain a Clean Work #Environment: Keeping the jobsite clean is essential for both productivity and safety. Address any potential hazards promptly and inform your team members to ensure their awareness.
- Conduct #Safety Walk-throughs: Prioritize safety by conducting a thorough walk-through of the work area before starting your day. This proactive approach helps identify and address risks effectively.
A safety-conscious mindset is crucial for maintaining a successful, productive, and safe work environment. Thank you Nicholas for your thoughtful and proactive approach in maintaining a safe working environment! #SeeSomethingSaySomething ...
Excited to see our team’s progress in cleaning up this site in El Monte, CA, which over time has served many functions including a former disposal/landfill site as well as most recently a homeless encampment center! Our work at this site includes excavation, stockpiling, management, profiling, and transportation/disposal of over 28,000 tons of soil classified as non-hazardous and Non-RCRA Hazardous (California-Hazardous). This in many ways is a “feel good” project allowing us to make an immediate positive impact to the less fortunate and those in the surrounding community. We’re grateful for the meticulous work of our team and our partners at this site and the opportunity to do good-work like this in our every-day business! ...
At ICS, we wake up every day striving to become the best versions of ourselves because producing the highest quality of work imaginable for our clients is important to us. One of the ways we ensure this is by taking matters into our own hands by organizing and producing educational videos for our employees, including “Safety Shorts”. Safety Shorts cover health and safety topics such as jobsite hazards, maintenance walk-throughs, and various “how to” safe procedures. ICS Safety Shorts are organized by our internal health and safety officers, but the lesson itself comes from our field personnel.
In a recent Safety Short, ICS employees covered the topic of Heavy Equipment Operation Safety. Field Operators Juan and Brian discussed and advised ICS employees on several important factors that ensure their safety on the job. The overall message of this video emphasizes the importance of an operator’s awareness while operating heavy equipment. Ensuring one another’s safety is a critical aspect of our work. Thank you Juan and Brian, for your wise words and Oscar-worthy performance in spreading the message of safety! #SeeSomethingSaySomething ...
One-stop shop and self-performance capabilities creates value! The picture above shows our team performing various structural excavations for footings of a future multi-story mixed use building in Northern California. Prior to this work, our team successfully performed demolition a 2-story structure and remediation of lead-impacted soil at this site, followed by mass grading and construction of the future building pads, all with our in-house crews. ICS’ diversified services and our self-perform capabilities allows us to deliver a higher level of control, quality and flexibility to our clients, while providing overall improved project management and cost-efficiencies. ...
This past Monday, we had the honor of hosting many of our cherished clients at the 26th Annual Professional Environmental Management Association (PEMA) Charity Golf Tournament. ICS has proudly supported this event as a Platinum Sponsor for 16 years! There’s nothing like gathering in person with our friends and colleagues at great events like this, but PEMA takes the trophy as all the funds raised from this event benefit two great charities: St. Vincent Meals-On-Wheels and YMCA Community Services of Orange County. At ICS, we believe that giving back to our community and those in need is our privilege, and we are grateful for the opportunity to do just that with our support of this great event!

Last week, President Hirad Emadi managed to sneak out of the office again for a project site barbecue for our hardworking crew at a complex remedial exaction project in Southgate. For us, these events are an absolute highlight - a chance to connect with colleagues in the field, show our appreciation for their efforts, and enjoy some delicious grilled lunch together. At ICS, we pride ourselves on taking care of one another, and these barbecues are just one of the many ways we’re able to give back to our team. Thank you all for your hard work and dedication, day-in and day-out. We’ll see you out there again soon! ...
